Change: The 2016 election game. (Sign Up & Rules thread)

[Congrats Senator Manny Sethi]

You know what, no. Not Carter.

I'll enter on the Republican side as Sean Hannity.

Grassroots said no celebrities

It’s a stretch to call Sean Hannity a celebrity.

More or less, he's that guy you don't want to admit is around though he is

[History505]

With Jindal in the race, Santorum is going to drop out and endorse either Jindal or Cruz very soon. Who will be? Stay tuned...

[Ses]

Hannity will announce by denouncing all the other GOP candidates on his show (on a day with extremely high viewership) and making the case that he is the only one who can save good, Christian America.

That's a solid strategy. Don't see anything wrong with that.

He also attacks Jindal as being a "fake American" and shows "solid evidence" that he's not loyal to the US, he spends 15 minutes "proving" Ted Cruz was linked to the JFK assassination and "an agent of George Soros", and attacks Rob Portman as being a "liberal in disguise" who's "connected to the Clinton Foundation".

Hannity just went Full Trump!

[Grassr00ts]

Jindal is in. Nice to see wx has jumped in!


I'm not letting Hannity in because I really want every candidate to have an equal chance of winning, and clearly Hannity would not be getting above 6% in this game and wouldn't really be adding anything constructive to it so I'm going to veto this one.

Trump does not have an hour long nightly show which half the party watches and believes every word of.

I dare you to call Jindal a "chicken diddler". I dare you.

Bredesen officially begins Chickengate

(Pls, don't put that in, tis a joke!)

[Ses]

Hannity's first endorsements will be from Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly.

Oh wait Rip OK.

Wait wait wait.

Could I play as Hannity as a non-candidate actor?

Edit: considering half the party considers his show gospel, I think Hannity would probably have an unfair advantage if he ran.

[Ses]

It's called H Y P E R B O L E

anyway, could I play Hannity as a political commentator?

[adamevans]

Ahh, why not, I'll enter as Jindal. I am quite busy though, so I might be slow to get updates in. What's the state of the race so far?

The Jindal is back

Sure. One update per turn.

[Congrats Senator Manny Sethi]

looking at the current polls, here is my predicted results if the nominee was chosen when the polls were taken:



Clinton Nomination or Bredesen nomination likely, also same for a brokered convention



Cruz Nomination is the most likely

I see Portman doing better in the northeast and west but less in the Midwest
